“I loved this bookwhile I was in the middle of a great depression. It made me feel like my life just wasn't soooo bad. It is about Poverty and working hard, having no hope and making the most of what you have in life... ok it is still boring.”
“is there much reason for me to read this book? As loads of people have said that they didn't like it”
“this a very inresting book its about industrial revolution i like it so much”
“Ask a question, kick off a discussion, or just talk about this book...itEverything in this book is a muddle. Facts alone must be taught to children. Mrs Sparsit was always curious about gossip, who did what to whom yesterday, today. She would sacrifice her own life hunting for other people's business while she could not even enjoy her own life. Is it good to mind other people's business? What was wrong with this woman? ”
“it is great peace of writing that reflects the social, economical and political picture of England passing through a transitional period. ”

“Who is your favorite Dickens character?Dickens created some of the most fun characters, both good and evil. He painted such vivid pictures of the most amusing and/or irritating human habits. Mr. Bounderby from "Hard Times" reminded me of a few especially annoying people I've known. I always get a kick out of David Copperfield's Mr. McCawber. Jasper Fforde's take on Miss Havesham was a hoot. I had never read "Great Expectations" until "The Well of Lost Plots" inspired me to do so.”
“Magwitch from Great Expectations. A long story, but my Grandmother was Findlay Currie's Housekeeper (he played Magwitch brilliantly in David Lean's film David Copperfield).My other favourites (so many) are Smike, Wackford Squeers Peggoty & Jingle”
“I love Flora Finching from _Little Dorrit_. She starts out as a parody of Dickens's first girlfriend, Maria Beadnell, but as the novel progresses, she becomes more selfless. She's very funny and kind -- and always a little bit breathless.It's hard to narrow it down to one favorite. I also love Little Nell, Quilp (he's so deliciously evil!), Smike, Mr. Dick, Aunt Betsey, Mr. Micawber, Scrooge, Sydney Carton, Sairey Gamp, Esther Summerson, and on and on.”
“Mark Tapley of Martin Chuzzlewit is my favorite Dickens character, his humor, his spirit is what's so special to me. ”
